CA Payal Sarda Rathi is a Philanthropic Practicing Chartered Accountant residing in Pune.Quiet confusing, right…To make it simple, she is a Baby of 3 children She is a Philanthropist, a Practicing Chartered Accountant and a mother of a 3-year-old little angel.
Since last 10 years, she runs a NGO under the name Care for you foundation a registered trust both under income tax and Bombay trust act whose motto is “Spreading Smiles Miles and Miles…We all dream of saving the world but due to various constraints these dreams don’t materialize.
Payal Sarda Rathi had such a dream and she brought it to fruition. Started in 2008, Care For You Foundation was formed with a vision to serve the Senior Citizens residing in old age homes and the lesser privileged children who are relegated to the fringes of society.
Unfortunately, due to various socio- economic reasons or the unforeseen death of a caregiver, the ones left behind are sheltered in old age homes, orphanages and other such places never to be loved as they deserve to be.The old and the young are our past and our future and if we don’t take care and nurture them then a part of us is lost forever.
It is said- It takes a whole village to raise a child- Care for You Foundation strives to be and do just that.Care For You is headquartered in Ahmednagar and has branches in Indore, Pune and Belagavi.They organise fund raising activities like carnivals, various drives ( collection of newspapers, clothes, etc), fun competitions. Meaningful, fun filled outings and life skill programs are organized for the recipients.The elderly are taken on pilgrimages, outings and taken care with regular health check ups. The motto is to fill their sunset years with laughter, love and rich memories.
The children from various homes are taught skill based activities like diya/lamp decoration. These are sold in the market by Care For You and all the proceeds are handed over to the artisans teaching and making them financial independent giving them the feeling of earn and learn.We also have an innovative program – Maitree- where an orphan child is assigned a lady mentor who is their go to person for all physiological and psychological needs. The main moto of MAITREE Project is to VANISH the word ORPHAN from the society, by giving one guardian to each orphan.
Nevertheless, Payal Sarda Rathi is a practicing CA in Pune for the past 8 years, handling various clientele of Direct and Indirect Taxation, Internal audits, bank audits etc and all other financial matters.
Last but not the least , She is married to CA Roshan Rathi from past 6 years and is blessed with a daughter of 3 years.
